Temporary
Detours

The detours for the Pulaski Skyway deck replacement (Contracts 3 and 4) will utilize state and county roadways. A minimal number of local streets will be included in the detour routes for the ramp closures on the Pulaski Skyway. Route 139 Hoboken and Conrail Viaduct detours will affect local streets in Jersey City.

Take
time to travel
smarter.

The
following detours
will be in place
to facilitate the
flow of traffic during
the closure of the
Pulaski Skyway northbound
lanes. Traffic engineers
and local police
will be monitoring
key intersections
on local Jersey City
streets.

Starting on or about April 1, 2016, the southbound Pulaski Skyway exit ramp to
Raymond Boulevard in Newark will be closed. It is necessary to close this ramp to
facilitate the replacement of the deck on the southbound side of the structure. The ramp will
be closed for more than two years while it is being rehabilitated following the bridge deck
replacement. The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) will be signing a
detour(pdf 1.2m)
along Route 1&9 southbound to Wilson Avenue and Doremus Avenue to accommodate motorists
diverted away from this Pulaski Skyway exit ramp.

The
Broadway entrance
ramp to the southbound
lanes of the Pulaski
Skyway will be
closed for the
duration of the
deck replacement. NJDOT will be
signing a detour(pdf 213k) along Route 1&9
T
southbound to
accomodate motorists
diverted away from
this Pulaski Skyway
entrance.

Due
to safety and congestion
concerns related
to the heavy merge/weave
area on Ferry Street/Raymond
Boulevard at the
entrance to the
New Jersey Turnpike
(Interchange 15E)
and Doremus Avenue,
NJDOT will be closing
the exit ramp from eastbound Ferry Street (Route 1&9 T) to the New Jersey Turnpike Toll Plaza at Interchange 15E and the exit ramp from
eastbound Ferry
Street (Route
1&9 T)
to Doremus Avenue.

Motorists will
be directed onto
Foundry Street,
then onto Roanoke
Street which
intersects with
Doremus Avenue.
From Doremus
Avenue, motorists
will be able
to easily access
the New Jersey
Turnpike.

Due to operational
concerns with the
added traffic on
Route 1&9 T,
the Route 1&9
T southbound
left-turn movement
onto Communipaw
Avenue has been
eliminated. Motorists
wishing to make
this move will
be detoured(pdf 183k):

Motorists will be directed southbound
on Route 440 to
the Hudson Mall
jughandle at Virginia
Avenue. Motorists
will
U-turn at
this jughandle
and travel north
to make a right
onto Communipaw
Avenue.
